Answer:

= 9.28 g CO₂

Explanation:

First write a balanced equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂ -> 2H₂O + CO₂

Convert the information to moles

7.50g CH₄ = 0.46875 mol CH₄

13.5g O₂ = 0.421875 mol O₂

Theoretical molar ratio CH₄:O₂ -> 1:2

Actual ratio is  0.46875 : 0.421875 ≈ 1:1

If all CH₄ is used up, there would need to be more O₂

So O₂ is the limiting reactant and we use this in our equation

Use molar ratio to find moles of CO₂

0.421875 mol O₂ * 1 mol CO₂/2 mol O₂=0.2109375 mol CO₂

Then convert to grams

0.2109375 mol CO₂ = 9.28114 g CO₂

round to 3 sig figs

= 9.28 g CO₂

What are the symbols, atomic mass and abundance in nature of the isotope boron-11
Aneli [31]
  1. The chemical symbol of the isotope boron-11 is ¹¹B.
  2. The atomic mass of the isotope boron-11 is equal to 11.009306.
  3. The abundance in nature of the isotope boron-11 is equal to 80.1%.

<h3>What is an isotope?</h3>

An isotope can be defined as the atom of a chemical element that has the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. This ultimately implies that, the isotopes of an element have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different atomic mass (number of neutrons).

In Chemistry, there are two main isotopes of boron and these include the following:

  • Boron-10
  • Boron-11

Boron-11 is the most stable isotope of boron and it is characterized by the following:

  1. The chemical symbol of the isotope boron-11 is ¹¹B.
  2. The atomic mass of the isotope boron-11 is equal to 11.009306.
  3. The abundance in nature of the isotope boron-11 is equal to 80.1%.

1 What characteristic of an element determines how its atoms can bond with other<br> atoms?
Masja [62]

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

The electrons of the outermost energy level determine the energetic stability of the atom and its tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms to form molecules. Under standard conditions, atoms fill the inner shells first, often resulting in a variable number of electrons in the outermost shell.

Explain the difference between a physical property and chemical property. Give examples of each.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
A physical property is what a substance is like; it's directly observable. On the other hand, a chemical property is how a substance behaves; its reactivity.

Examples of a physical property are: color, texture, boiling point, freezing point, and melting point.

Examples of a chemical property are: flammability, combustion, and formation of a precipitate.
